Congrats to Tonya and Chris Guinn for winning the trip back home to Auburn for the Tennessee Game this week. Thanks to everyone that participating, It was a difficult choice and there were many great stories, but we were only able to select one. Congratulations once again to the Guinn’s.

As for the rest of us, stay tuned for more exiting events and activities from the #seattleauburnclub

Football is almost here! The defending National Champions kick off the 2011 season on September 3rd at 9am PST. The Seattle Auburn Club will hold the first game watch of the season at Buckley’s On Queen Anne. The QA location has recently expanded, adding more seating and 50″ HDTVs. They have a great breakfast menu for these early games.

We’ll also be giving away raffle prizes every week throughout the season; including National Championship hats and shirts.

And as always, the Queen Anne Buckley’s is open- all ages. So bring the whole Auburn Family.

It is the end of the year and it is almost that time for your ALUM membership renewal. Usually, we don’t talk about membership fees, however, since we stop collecting our local membership fee, our only source of income is from the Auburn Alumni Association. So please sign up and make sure you point to the Seattle Auburn Club!!!

A little bit about Membership-.

War Eagle Everyone,

With Auburn’s win against Ole Miss last week, it is hard for me to announce that we will not have a game watch this Saturday (11/07) for the Auburn Vs. Furman game. We tried to find a place where they are broadcasting the game, however, we were not able to locate a venue. But don’t worry we will have a big game watching event for the Auburn Georgia game!!! More details to come in the near future about the location for the Auburn UGA game.

Few club related announcements:

1) A reminder that we will be collecting for our fall food during the Auburn UGA game!!! So bring your donations to the game watch!!!

2) Our Fall Food Drive Shirts are in, so let me know if you are interested in purchasing a shirt. Each shirt is 22 dollars. The earning from the shirt sale will go to the Seattle Auburn Club.

3) We have a Logo contest winner!!! Congrats to Andy Hall from Atlanta for contributing to our Logo contest.

4) The southern schools in Seattle will be doing a toy drive for Toys for Tots on December 2nd at Barca in Seattle from 6-9 pm. I will post a separate entry about this soon.

5) Finally, Seattle UGA Club have asked if we would like to watch the Auburn UGA game with them. I would like your feedback on this? Let me know, I will finalized our decision in the next couple of days.

Well.. that is all for now… Have a wonderful home coming weekend!!! WAR EAGLE!!!

The game will be televised in the Southeast on Fox Sports South, Fox Sports Southwest and Sun Sports. Fans in other areas of the country should check with their local Fox Sports affiliate the week of the game to see if the game will be shown in their area. It will be Auburn’s second game this season on Fox Sport (the Tigers’ 49-24 victory over Mississippi State last Saturday was the first one this year). The game against Ball State will be just the third meeting between the two schools. Auburn defeated the Cardinals 30-0 in 2001 and 63-3 in 2005.
